Cancel Gomo: The Right Way
How to cancel gomo in new zealand: your complete guide to travel insurance and digital services
What is gomo and why you might need to cancel
Gomo operates across multiple markets in New Zealand, most commonly appearing as Go Insurance NZ for travel insurance, and separately as GoMo mobile services in Europe and other regions. You may have signed up for travel cover before a trip changed, or discovered a mobile service no longer suits your needs. Whatever your reason, understanding how Gomo works will make your cancellation process faster and smoother. At Stopee, we've helped thousands of New Zealanders navigate exactly this situation - and we're here to guide you through it.
Service summary
Gomo-related services in New Zealand are managed almost entirely online through apps, web-based account portals, or third-party platforms like the Apple App Store and Google Play. There is no physical postal address to write to; all cancellations, refunds, and account changes happen through digital channels. This is actually good news for you - it means faster processing and immediate confirmation.
Why cancellation matters
If you've purchased travel insurance and your trip no longer happens, or you've activated a mobile eSIM you're no longer using, cancelling stops unwanted charges and protects your consumer rights. New Zealand law gives you strong protections, including a 14-day cooling-off period for distance-sold insurance. Stopee exists to help you claim those rights without friction.
Your consumer rights under new zealand law
Your legal protections matter when dealing with Gomo. This section outlines what the law entitles you to, and where to escalate if Gomo refuses.
The 14-day cooling-off period
If you purchased travel insurance from Go Insurance NZ online or via an app, you have a legal right to cancel within 14 days of purchase - provided your trip has not yet started and you have not made any claims. This is a cooling-off right under New Zealand's Consumer Guarantees Act and distance-contract rules. Gomo must refund your full premium during this window, no questions asked. You do not need a reason; you simply change your mind.
The 14-day clock starts from the moment you receive your policy confirmation email or activation message. Mark this date in your calendar immediately after purchase.
Distance-contract protections
Because Gomo conducts business online (no physical store), New Zealand Consumer Law grants you extra protections. The company must be clear about cancellation rights before you buy. If Gomo buried these rights in the terms and conditions without highlighting them, that is a breach - and you may have grounds to demand a refund even after 14 days. Keep all confirmation emails and screenshots of the purchase page.
What to do if gomo refuses to cancel or refund
If Gomo declines your cancellation request or withholds a refund you believe you're entitled to, escalate to the Financial Dispute Resolution scheme (FDR) if Gomo is a registered financial service provider, or contact the Commerce Commission directly. You can also file a formal complaint with the Citizens Advice Bureau. Document everything - emails, chat transcripts, dates, amounts - before you escalate. Stopee recommends keeping copies of all correspondence in one folder for easy reference.
How to cancel gomo: step-by-step by platform
Your cancellation steps depend on where you subscribed. Follow the instructions for your specific platform to ensure your cancellation is processed correctly.
Cancelling travel insurance through go insurance NZ online
- Log in to your Go Insurance NZ account on their website using your email and password.
- Navigate to "My Policies" or "Active Policies" - the exact label varies, but look for a section listing your current insurance cover.
- Find the Gomo travel insurance policy you wish to cancel and click on it to open the details.
- Look for a "Cancel Policy" button, link, or dropdown menu. If you cannot find it, proceed to step 5.
- Select "Request cancellation" or "Initiate cancellation" and follow the prompts. You will likely be asked to confirm your reason (optional) and accept terms.
- Take a screenshot or note the confirmation number displayed on screen.
- Check your email within 5 minutes for a cancellation confirmation from Go Insurance NZ. Pro tip: If no email arrives, open a live chat (see below) and ask for manual confirmation.
Warning: Do not assume your policy is cancelled until you receive written confirmation via email. Stopee has seen cases where the online form failed silently, leaving the policy active and billing continuing.
Cancelling gomo via live chat or customer support
- Visit the Go Insurance NZ website and locate the "Help" or "Contact Us" section, usually at the bottom of the page.
- Click "Live Chat" or "Start a conversation" to open the chat window. If chat is unavailable, note the email address or phone number provided.
- Type a clear, simple message: "I would like to cancel my Gomo travel insurance policy [your policy number]. I purchased it on [date] and no trip has commenced. Please process a full refund."
- Provide your full name, email address, and policy number when asked.
- Wait for an agent to respond. This usually takes 2-10 minutes during business hours.
- Confirm with the agent that your policy will be cancelled and your refund will be processed. Ask for a reference number.
- Request a written confirmation email. Do not close the chat until you receive it.
- Copy the entire chat transcript (usually a "Save" or "Print" option is available) and paste it into an email to yourself as backup.
Pro tip: Chat during Go Insurance NZ's business hours (typically 9am-5pm NZT Monday-Friday) for fastest responses. If you're outside these hours, send an email to the support address instead, and save a copy for your records.
Cancelling a gomo subscription via apple app store
- Open the Apple App Store app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner (usually a circular image or initials).
- Select "Subscriptions" from the menu that appears.
- Find "Gomo" in the list of active subscriptions and tap on it.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage" and then "Cancel."
- Select a reason for cancellation (optional, but helpful feedback for the provider).
- Confirm the cancellation. Your subscription will end at the next billing date, not immediately.
- Screenshot the confirmation screen showing the cancellation status.
Apple will not charge you again after your current billing period ends. Your access to the service will continue until that date.
Cancelling a gomo subscription via google play
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Payments and subscriptions" or "Manage subscriptions."
- Tap "Subscriptions" to see your active subscriptions.
- Find "Gomo" and tap on it.
- Select "Cancel subscription."
- Choose a reason for cancellation if prompted.
- Confirm the cancellation. Your subscription ends at the next billing date.
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation.
Google Play will immediately stop billing you at the end of your current paid period. You will retain access to the service until that date expires.
Understanding gomo pricing and refund eligibility
Your refund depends on when you cancel and which product you purchased. This section clarifies what you can expect to receive back.
Pricing overview for new zealand customers
Gomo's pricing varies significantly depending on the product. Travel insurance premiums typically range from NZD $15 to NZD $150+ depending on trip length, destination risk, and coverage level. App-store subscriptions are typically billed weekly, monthly, or annually. GoMo mobile services (where available in NZ) vary by data allowance and validity period.
| Product | Typical price (NZD) | Billing cycle | Refund if cancelled within 14 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Go Insurance NZ travel insurance | $30-$150 | One-off (no renewal) | Full refund if trip not started, no claims made |
| Gomo app subscription (App Store) | $4-$20 per month | Weekly / monthly / annual | Apple/Google refund policy (usually 48 hours) |
| Gomo app subscription (Google Play) | $4-$20 per month | Weekly / monthly / annual | Google refund policy (usually within 48 hours) |
When you qualify for a full refund
You qualify for a full refund if you cancel Go Insurance NZ travel insurance within 14 days of purchase AND your trip has not commenced AND you have not filed any claims. This is your legal right under New Zealand consumer law. The refund will be credited to your original payment method within 5-10 working days.
If you cancel after 14 days, or your trip has already started, you are generally not entitled to a refund. However, Stopee recommends asking anyway - some insurers will offer a partial refund or credit towards a future policy as a gesture of goodwill.
App store refund timelines
If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, refund eligibility depends on the platform's rules, not Gomo's. Both platforms typically allow refunds for accidental purchases or unused subscriptions within 48 hours of the first charge. After 48 hours, refunds are at the app publisher's discretion. Request refunds directly through the app store where you purchased, not through Gomo.
What happens after you cancel gomo
Cancellation does not happen all at once. Understanding the timeline and what to expect will help you avoid confusion and unwanted charges.
Immediate changes to your account
Once your cancellation is confirmed by Gomo (via email or chat), your account will be flagged as "Cancellation Pending" or "Active but Cancelled." You will retain access to the service until the end of your current billing period. For travel insurance, access ends immediately after cancellation is confirmed, because there is no ongoing billing. For app subscriptions, you keep access until the next renewal date.
Stopping automatic renewals
After cancellation, automatic renewals must stop. Log back into your Gomo account 24 hours later to confirm that your renewal has been disabled. Look for a "Renewal" or "Auto-renew" toggle - it should be switched off. If it is still on, contact Stopee's support team or reach out to Go Insurance NZ directly via chat to request manual renewal cancellation. Do not assume it will turn off on its own.
Refund processing timeline
Refunds for travel insurance are typically processed within 5-10 working days. Check your bank account or credit card statement to confirm the refund has arrived. If 10 working days pass and you see no refund, escalate to Gomo's support team with your cancellation confirmation number. If they refuse to act, lodge a complaint with the Financial Dispute Resolution scheme (if applicable) or the Commerce Commission.
Data retention and privacy
Cancelling your Gomo account does not automatically delete your personal data. Gomo's privacy policy typically allows them to retain your information for up to 7 years for legal and tax purposes. If you wish your data deleted sooner, you have the right to request data deletion under the Privacy Act 2020. Submit a written request to Gomo's privacy team (usually privacy@gomo.com or found in their privacy policy) and they must respond within 20 working days.
Common mistakes when cancelling gomo
Cancelling a subscription sounds simple, but small missteps often lead to forgotten charges and frustration. Here are the pitfalls Stopee sees most often - and how to avoid them.
Assuming the online form worked without confirmation
The biggest mistake is clicking "Cancel" and assuming the process is done. Web forms fail silently all the time. Always wait for a confirmation email before you relax. If no email arrives within 5 minutes, contact live chat immediately to confirm manual cancellation. Stopee recommends taking a screenshot of the confirmation screen as extra proof.
Forgetting to disable automatic renewal
You cancelled your subscription, but auto-renewal is still switched on in your account settings. Your next billing date arrives and you're charged again. Always log back in 24 hours after cancellation to verify the renewal toggle is OFF. For app-store subscriptions, do this via your App Store or Google Play settings, not through Gomo's website.
Cancelling through the wrong channel
You contacted Gomo support via email asking for cancellation, but no one replied - so you assumed it was ignored. Meanwhile, your policy was still active and you were still being billed. Always use live chat or the account portal cancellation feature for fastest, documented results. Email is slower and harder to prove later if there's a dispute.
Not keeping cancellation proof
You cancelled weeks ago and forgot to save the confirmation. Now you spot a charge on your bank statement and cannot prove you cancelled. Stopee's golden rule: screenshot every confirmation screen and save every confirmation email in a dedicated folder. Do this immediately after each cancellation.
Cancelling outside the cooling-off window and accepting no refund
You cancelled 30 days after purchase and Gomo said "no refund possible." You accepted this without question. However, if the trip was still three months away and hadn't started, you may still have a right to a partial refund or to raise a dispute. Always ask Gomo to explain their refusal in writing. If it doesn't satisfy you, escalate to the Commerce Commission or a Citizens Advice Bureau advocate.
